It's Official!!

Her first tooth has cut through! We are soooo excited! She has been teething for months!

FTM (first time mom) so not sure how to proceed. I know I need to make sure I start brushing it with a toothbrush either with water or toothpaste without fluoride, especially when it grows (right now it's a little stubble lol), but do I need to go ahead and get her a dentist and schedule an appointment?

What do you mean by ' teething for months'? i just noticed my daughters first tooth on the bottom while nursing yesterday,... and i was really surprised because i had no clue she was closer to getting a tooth!!!!

On and off fevers, chewing on everything, fussy when it's really bothering her, drooling, etc. They can teeth for months before getting a tooth, but I'm sure that some babies show no signs. Congrats on the tooth I'm happy one finally cut through for our LO (little one) because now she seems to feel a lot better!!
